"healing dance"
We've been engulfed in a dance of hate
to appease self
swam in pools of confusion to
find solace
cultivated in land of vengeance to
be at peace
And dread the harvest of sin.
We have drowned spirit of joy to
create sorrow and solitude of self
In attempt to stay king in world
of selfishness
Stepped on souls of meek and weak
brutalized heads on our way to the top
to be rewarded by nature.
Look up to the moon and sacred mountains
of the sky
Listen to the songs of sacred land
Feel the healing wind of sea
Step into the vibrations of energizing
songs of sun.
Let's dance beyond rhythm of sorrow
Lift our legs and hands in praise
of life.
Dance to the wind of drums for the
rejuvenation of souls.
